What Is a Well Pump? What Does a Well Pump Do?
A well pump is a device used to draw water from a private well and deliver it to a home or building. Unlike homes connected to a city water supply, properties with private wells depend entirely on their well pump to access clean, usable water.
How does a well pump work? Once water is drawn from the well, it’s stored in a pressure tank, which helps regulate flow and provide consistent water pressure. That way, when you turn on a faucet, flush a toilet, or run a washing machine, you get water instantly and at the right flow rate.
There are different types of well pumps, such as submersible pumps (installed deep inside the well) and jet pumps (typically located above ground). No matter what you have, though, they all serve the same fundamental purpose: delivering safe, pressurized water to your home.

Does Every Home Need a Well Pump?
No, only homes that use a private well need a well pump. If your home is connected to a city or municipal water system, the local utility company handles water delivery and pressure, so a pump isn’t necessary.
However, in rural areas or regions without access to public water infrastructure, well pumps are the primary method for accessing a clean and reliable water supply. Without a functioning well pump, water cannot be delivered to your taps.
If you’re unsure whether your home has a well pump, some signs include: no water service bill from the city, a visible pressure tank (often located in the basement or utility room), a wellhead or capped pipe somewhere on your property.
We Provide House, Well & Booster Pumps Throughout Southwest Florida
We take it for granted that when we turn on the faucets in our home that water will come out. But with many residents on well water here in Southwest Florida, this isn’t always the case. And when we don’t have water…it’s often a problem with a pump.
There are three types of pumps we deal with here at Aqua Care: well pumps, house pumps, and booster pumps.
Well Pumps
Whether the water is for your lawns, irrigation, or feeding the water system for your home if you are getting water out of the ground you have a well pump. Some are above ground, but most are installed down the well, submerged under the water. The depths vary by location based on the water table.
For instance, the well pumps in San Carlos Park might only be 20 to 30 feet deep, but the ones in Cape Coral need to be 120 feet down. The pressure switch and pressure tank above ground work together to control the pump and bring the water up.
When your well pump stops working, you have no water – and it can be frustrating. At Aqua Care, we are prepared and have everything in stock and on our trucks that’s needed to replace a standard well pump. We use Franklin Electric Brand pumps because they have the best motor in the business and offer the best warranty.
House Pumps
If you have an aerator as part of your water system you have two pumps – a well pump and a house pump. The well pump puts the water in the aerator, while the house pump gets it out of the tank and into the home.
Some house pumps are submersible, like the well pump, and they are installed in the aerator tank. Others are “jet” pumps, and they sit on the concrete pad next to the aerator. When there is a problem with this pump you will have water from the well and in the aerator…but nothing at the faucets in the home.
Each of Aqua Care’s service trucks is stocked with both of these types of house pumps to ensure we can get your water back on and running quickly.
Booster Pumps
Most of the time the city supplied water pressure in our homes is great. But certain factors like the size of the home, the way the fixtures are plumbed, or your home’s location in relation to the water main can leave you with lower pressure.
If your pressure just isn’t cutting it, let us know. We offer a variety of booster pumps for different circumstances. Let us help you pick the one that can safely increase the pressure of your water system and make you love your water again.
